Awareness and Sexual Perception Study Shows That Alternative
Sexualities Are Being Celebrated More Openly

SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Kink.com, the largest producer of kinky online adult entertainment,
today released the Sexual Perception Study, conducted by Wiser Marketing
Group, that found that the average man is feeling less stigmatized when
discussing his sexuality and that some people are probably a little more
deviant than what the greater population might be aware of.

“Engaging in a variety of safe, consensual, and mutually pleasurable
sexual activities adds to the development of healthy relationships, and
perhaps boosts an individual's mental, physical, and spiritual health as
well,” says Eric Marlowe Garrison, MAEd, MSc, consultant sexologist and
author of the international best-seller, Mastering Multiple
Position Sex. “The Awareness and Sexual Preference Study sheds light
on dozens of historically taboo, alternative sexual activities that
society is now beginning to cast aside and even accept with open arms.”

In the study of 315 men between the ages of 25 - 54, not only do a great
majority support couples in their right to consensually please
one-another as they wish, their support of historically taboo activities
is refreshingly overwhelming. According to survey responses, 37% of men
would be interested in having sex in public and 30% of men would
possibly be interested in tying someone up or being tied up assuming
safety and a willing partner. A little more mainstream, but deviant
according to historical social mores, 53% of respondents said they get
sexually aroused from seeing people other than their partner(s) nude and
52% are sexually aroused watching others have sex – 47% of whom are
“Somewhat/Very Religious.”

“The fact that the world is loosening up a bit is so refreshing,” says
Peter Acworth, founder of Kink.com. “We’ve been stereotyped for far too
long. And for no reason other than wanting to satisfy our innate carnal
needs and desires. When I saw the results of the study, I said to
myself, ‘it’s so good to see progress.’ I mean there’s nothing wrong
with a little enjoyment of ‘alternative’ sexual activities as long as
everyone involved is participating consensually.”
